Hey guys, have you heard of an ISA? An ISA is in the real estate world: an Inside Sales Agent.

Now, why should you care? Well, a lot of top teams hire an ISA to sit in their office or virtually and make calls into the marketplace. They could be calling their spheres of influence. They could be calling FSBOs, expireds, online leads, neighborhoods. Lots and lots of uses for ISAs.

Is it a good investment? It can be. But I want to talk to you about something else, which is related to ISAs in a different way, and that is treating your current sphere of influence as a low-key ISA.

And what I mean by that is you've got this little army around you, these 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 people in your sphere of influence that could be out in the marketplace acting as, kind of, your ISA. But you got to train them to do so.

You got to turn them into your little mini sales army. And what do I mean by that? I mean, you're going to let them know that the best way they can help you is just by watching an...

So what are five reasons why someone should list their home in today's spring market, spring of 2025? I'm going to walk you through these reasons, and you can share them in an email, a newsletter, or your own video to your clients.

Over 90% of American adults want to own a home—they're just trying to find a way to make it happen. Homeownership may have dipped over the years, but that desire to stop renting and start owning is still strong.

Third, inventory i...

Hey folks, did you know 23% of homeowners in the US are planning to sell their homes within three years?

That's a massive pool of potential listings right in your community.

How can you tap into this "shadow inventory"? Well, here's a winning strategy: a personalized letter campaign.

You're already farming neighborhoods, right? So send out letters, but make them different this time. Start with a simple question: "Hey, Mr. and Mrs. Homeowner, is this the last home you'll ever own?"

Then, explain that some of your clients aren't keen on listing publicly but would entertain offers from qualified buyers. Offer to chat if they're in that boat. Include your contact info, and keep it straightforward.

This approach will resonate with many homeowners who aren't ready for the market but would consider a strong offer. You'll start receiving calls, so funnel them into your drip campaign. Build th...
